Obviously Tito was going to win. Of course Shamrock WAS good, but he aint anymore.
Don't know what it was but I have never seen Tito so nice. Maybe it was because Jenna Jameson was there or because it was on free TV, or just because it was Ken's last fight. I never thought that the words respect and Tito Ortiz went together, but maybe it is a sign of his maturity as a person and as a fighter. Maybe he is really just a marketing machine!

I think they said that the Ortiz/Liddell fight is already signed as long as Tito won, so I am looking forward to that in December. He looked good last night and I know a title bout would be wayyy better.

Although I am a Canadian, I must say Jason MacDonald stole the show last night. He murdered Ed Herman, and although some fights can just be luck of the draw, I must say that I was very impressed by his triangle. That thing was locked, you know he wasnt getting out of it. Can't wait to see him fight again. I like Ultimate Fighter, but it starts to get a little boring when its only the guys from the show fighting in all the events. It makes it a little more exciting to see new guys come out of nowhere (especially Canada), and show the TV cast who is boss.

I would've liked to see a little more standup, but hey. Ken got Shamrocked!!!

UFC is not what it used to be, anyone feel the same? Kind of took a Hollywood twist. Used to be bar-brawlers, and who ever fighting, o yea with no gloves too!! Now those are where its at.

Eagerly awaiting St. Pierre's next fight. I'm not sure if he can beat Matt Hughes or not, but he is a great fighter...one of my favorites. He's got a lot of personality, too. I always call him Van Dam because he looks like a mini version of him.

Shamrock had no business being in the octagon with Ortiz, he's too young and too strong. can't wait till he fights Lidell it will be a good one.

Shamrock took a dive. Why else would he have gone for the legs right from the bell.

Shamrock's only chance at winning was a stand-up battle, and he knew it. That's Tito's weakness, and Ken's strength. The only logical reason for Shamrock to take the fight to the floor right away would be to get the fight over with quickly, and collect his last paycheck.

He pulled a Tyson for sure.

That was no dive by shamrock, I don't know if you know him or not but he is a SUBMISSION expert not a stand up, so the ground is his game just not against a younger stronger Tito!

I can't wait to see titovslidell in December the Silva and tito fight is supposed to be mid/late December.
